Cowboy boots are a staple in any southern girls wardrobe, especially because they seem to go with everything. With a plethora of styles, it is easy to find your perfect pair, and you’ll rarely see the same boots twice.

Read on for some tips on what to wear with your favorite pair! 

Only in Nashville can you go to a free Luke Bryan concert on a Wednesday night- lucky us. Dress up your cowboy boots with your favorite sundress and small shoulder bag (you don’t want it to get in the way when you’re fighting your way to the front!). 

If you haven’t heard of Boot Country yet, here’s what you need to know: buy one pair of boots and get two free! The boots can get crazy expensive, so head down with two of your friends and you can each grab your own pair.

Cowboy boots are easy to dress down, but pair them with some jeans and a nice shirt to get a look that’s cute without being too casual.

Nothing is better than tailgating on a Saturday afternoon. Walking down frat row with deafening music and girls in sundresses and cowboy boots, a light jacket will keep you warm enough all day and complement your footwear.

 

Stacey Oswald, originally from South Florida, came to Vanderbilt as a member of the class of 2015 and got involved with HerCampus her freshman year. She became assistant editor that year and is now the Campus Correspondent for Vanderbilt HC as a sophomore. Stacey is currently a columnist for Ask Miss A- Nashville and the life section of The Hustler. She's also very involved in her sorority, Kappa Delta, as well as Invisible Children. Outside of school and her extracurriculars, Stacey finds happiness in many sources, the most crucial being exercise and the sun. She loves to attend exercise classes and is an avid runner; she recently completed the Country Music Half Marathon. She also loves Vitamin D, especially when on the beach- though of course, she only soaks up the sun after applying SPF. A few of the things Stacey couldn't live without? Good food (especially from Sweet Cece's, Bricktops, and Samurai Sushi), great books (The Hypnotist's Love Story is a recent favorite), her family back in Florida, her wonderful boyfriend, and all of the great friends she's made at Vanderbilt.
